1. In selecting the host sites for community-based solar resources connected to the distribution system, an electric utility must consider and provide greater weight to the following locations:

(a) A location in a disadvantaged or low-income community.

(b) A location in an area determined by an electric utility or the Commission to have high locational value which includes, without limitation, an area that has optimum solar output, an area for which it is possible to obtain the necessary permits, an area that provides community services or benefits or an area that provides a grid benefit.

2. An electric utility shall provide a reasonable justification for its selection of a host site as the site for a community-based solar resource. If it is impracticable for an electric utility to site a community-based solar resource in a community with higher levels of low-income eligible customers, the electric utility shall provide adequate rationale for why the selected site is appropriate.
